Rhy Priestland taking a 18 month break from international rugby.

 

[30yearsofhurt]

Bad call. He only hit him with the arm. No shoulder at all.

 

[KingSnake]

Just too many penalties given away by AB.

 

[m3k]

South African defense is great

 

[jwick]

SA definitely playing at a different gear than they have the tournament thus far.

 

[30yearsofhurt]

Lineouts are the slow poison of rugby.

 

[30yearsofhurt]

Totally deserved.

 

[KingSnake]

What a stupid thing to do.

 

[Blastoise]

Fook me

 

[Daemul]

About fucking time

A yellow for what looked like a genuine mistake? Bullshit.

I didn't catch why it was a yellow aye

Interesting match.

I almost treat the two half as completely different matches as teams can change so much when they come out after the break. There's a very long time to go but New Zealand have looked a bit lost for much of this tournament and it seems to be carrying on here.

 

[BanGy.nz]

All Blacks are being murdered at the breakdown.

A yellow for what looked like a genuine mistake? Bullshit.

It was NZ's 9th penalty in the half so someone was going in the bin shortly. A lazy runner is always likely to get a yellow especially when it's an example of his sides continual ill-discipline.

It was deliberate.

 

[CCS]

New Zealand not playing anywhere near well enough.

 

[KingSnake]

I hope we don't get a SA-AUS final, that would be almost as boring as an all European final.

 

[JP]

There's a hell of a lot of PlayStation 4 adverts which I don't remember seeing in any of the other matches. I wonder if they'll have splashed out on the final too?

 

[LiquidSolid]

It was deliberate.

Rubbish. You could see Kaino look pissed before the whistle even blew, he even tried to skip over it.

If you keep giving away penalties then sooner or later you're going tp get a yellow card.

 

[30yearsofhurt]

NZ scrum getting dominated.

 

[operon]

Loving south africa

 

[CCS]

Cracking drop goal.

 

[Blastoise]

Fuck yeah DC!

 

[jwick]

That's a huge loss.

 

[CCS]

That's a superbly worked try.

 

[jwick]

Boom. Let's go.

 

[KingSnake]

That's more like it.

 

[m3k]

Good work habana

 

[Blastoise]

SA looking burnt out.

 

[CCS]

And he's right to send Habana. Cynical to do that so close to the line. No choice after the Kaino yellow.

 

[BanGy.nz]

Habana will be a huge loss especially as the game seems to be turning.

 

[LiquidSolid]

If you keep giving away penalties then sooner or later you're going tp get a yellow card.

I don't disagree with that, just think yellows should be given to deliberate penalties, not accidents. Didn't really matter though, we gained 3 points while Kaino was in the bin.

ABs looking much better now, thanks to the Boks tiring and the bench coming on.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

South Africa is fucked.

 

[SnowFlakeCake]

NZ gave away too many penalties but the SA defense was only going to last so long, they looking good and Habana gone too.

 

[m3k]

South Africa scrum tho

 

[30yearsofhurt]

Clearly got to keep going for the scrum. That's the route to a win here.

 

[m3k]

Grant foxs record broken... Haha the first player I followed

 

[Blastoise]

SA medic is a cutie

 

[30yearsofhurt]

That's typical NZ. Deliberate cynical cheating.

That's typical NZ. Deliberate cynical cheating.

Lol

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Wow, they are so close

 

[LiquidSolid]

That's typical NZ. Deliberate cynical cheating.

Cry moar.

Boks time wasting. No idea how you get a shoulder injury by running down field.

 

[jwick]

That's typical NZ. Deliberate cynical cheating.

lol.

 

[Blastoise]

!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[CCS]

Bloody close game that.

 

[LiquidSolid]

Yesssss! Tough, hard game like an AB/Bok game always is. Awesome win.

 

[Beefy]

Well done NZ.

 

[m3k]

That was a good match... A hard one
